About
Meet your coach
Hi! I'm Alice, The Postnatal Pilates Coach.
Founder of Your Time Pilates and Postnatal Pilates specialist
I founded Your Time Pilates with the mission of helping women to take back control of their bodies after having kids, after experiencing my own difficult recovery.
My signature programme, The Postnatal Core Rehab Method, has transformed the lives of hundreds of mums after a difficult birth, c-section, diastasis recti, a weakened pelvic floor or managing a pelvic organ prolapse.
After the births of both my children I realised that there wasn’t enough support for women needing to recover from childbirth and I felt compelled to do something about it. Hence the birth of Your Time Pilates! Helping postnatal women take back power over their body and lives has become my mission.
What I love most about being a Postnatal Pilates instructor is that I am a hands-on part of someone’s change journey. I get to share in the sparks of pure wonder when they discover how strong and powerful they are.
I am a mum of 2.5 kids (the dog definitely counts!), living in Southfields, London, and basically a YOGI (young fogey!) as I love dabbling in the garden and doing puzzles.
WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
“Just three sessions and it’s completely transformed the way I’m living. I can go running without leaking for the first time in years. It’s given me the freedom to know I can stay out with the kids and go for longer walks. I wish I’d started sooner!”
Jo, mum of two
“I’m now able to live without pain! I sometimes get pubis symphysis pain after walking and stiffness in my lower back in the morning. Now I have the tools to manage that pain so whenever it flares up, I do my exercises and the pain goes away."
Martine, mum of two
"I’m feeling so much stronger when I’m doing everyday things. It’s kickstarted me to be healthier in other areas of my life too and take better care of myself. You have to be committed though, it’s not a magic pill. Just do it - it makes a big difference to everything!"
Christine, mum of two
"I felt that my core was shot to pieces after two c-sections. Alice gave me the support and guidance in the early postnatal period to build the foundations up in the initial healing period. Now, my three-figure diastasis is now almost completely closed after only a few weeks."
Harriet, mum of two
“I had a diastasis and didn’t know what to do. I lacked confidence in my body and worried I’d hurt myself when I picked up the baby. Now I’ve got my confidence and strength back. I’m so pleased I did this for myself.”
Els, mum of two
"I'm the least injured I've every been. It's amazing!"
Rebecca, mum of four
"Alice literally saved me. I was in pain every day with a prolapsed disc and now I’m totally pain-free and have had another baby. I am now stronger than I’ve ever been.”
Rebecca, mum of three
“I'm amazed at the difference only four sessions have made! My pelvic pain and lower back pains are gone, and my body feels like it's clicking back into place after being disconnected for many years.”
Sultana, mum of one
“Just one class has performed wonders for my back and I’m now much more aware of my posture. I feel amazing and invigorated!”
Rachel, mum of two
WHY POSTNATAL PILATES?
Pilates is not just exercise. It is a holistic approach to exercise that aims to improve your physical strength, flexibility and posture and alignment. Not to forget the added benefit of reducing stress and improving mental focus and well-being.
After carrying a baby in your womb for 9 months there has been quite a strain on the core. Your abdominals have been stretched and may have stretched apart slightly (diastasis recti). Your pelvic floor muscles have been supporting a heavy load and then may have helped push a baby out. Your lower back muscles will need supporting and strengthening as your baby grows and gets heavier.
This is where Pilates works it's magic:
⭐️ It strengthens your pelvic floor – combat incontinence and prolapse issues
⭐️ It ah-mazing for your abs – Pilates hits your core and helps to reshape your post-pregnancy body
⭐️ Improve diastasis recti – repair over-stretched abdominals and improve back pain
⭐️ Regain a good posture and prevent back pain – redress the postural imbalances caused by pregnancy and caring for you baby
⭐️ Strengthen and energise your whole body – Pilates isn’t just about the core, it’s a total body workout
⭐️ Build confidence and feel good about yourself – reconnect with your new body and be in awe of all the amazing things it can do!
⭐️ Help you lose baby weight – Pilates gives you the tools to prepare your body for more vigorous cardiovascular activities
FAQ'S
What shall I wear to a Pilates class?
Wear loose comfortable trousers or shorts and a comfortable top. In Pilates we tend to take our shoes off, however if you prefer, these can be left on.
Where do the classes take place?
In the comfort of your own home!
Can I have my baby in the sessions?
Yes, of course you can. Where possible we'd love to encourage you to take this time for yourself but are more than happy to have some cuddles with a babe in arms too!
I’ve never done Pilates before. What can I expect?
Classes normally start in a standing position to correctly align your body, re-set your posture and help you learn the most beneficial position for you and your posture type. This will be reminded each week, and over time, you should start to feel your ‘normal’ becoming closer to this ‘ideal’ posture. This gives you a real feeling of achievement.
After an initial warm up, you will transfer to the floor and begin a series of exercises. Some will be on your front, some on your side, some on your back, some in a seated position. If any of these positions may cause you discomfort, please let your instructor know prior to the class, or during and you will be offered an alternative position. The exercises will flow with stretches in between, and the class will fly by as the concentration required to perform such small movements with correct technique and engagement is phenomenal. Pilates is not initially a physical challenge. It’s a mental challenge. Then when you understand what is required to maintain good posture throughout the movements, then it becomes more physically challenging.
Is equipment provided?
Many people prefer to use their own mats so they can continue their practice during the week. We can provide a mat if necessary or can purchase one on your behalf. All other equipment (bands, balls, blocks etc) will be provided.
Do I need to complete any forms?
